How do plants play a crucial role in the carbon cycle?

Biology
1 answer:
schepotkina [342]4 years ago
8 0

plant activity impacts the carbon cycle by introducing more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere: carbon dioxide accumulates in the atmosphere, changes temperatures and alters the salinity levels of oceans, disturbing the salt and water balance equilibrium that supports proper growth of marine plants and animals.

Anarel [89]

Answer:

A closed system is a physical system that does not allow transfer of matter in or out of the system, though, in different contexts, such as physics, chemistry or engineering, the transfer of energy is or is not allowed.

Sheets composed of two layers of amphipathic molecules arranged with the hydrophilic groups on the surface and the hydrophobic g
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

D) bilayer membranes

Explanation:

Two lipidic bilayers compose the cell membrane. There are also proteins and glucans incrusted in between. Lipids are amphipathic molecules with hydrophilic heads -negatively charged phosphate group- and hydrophobic tails. Lipids are arranged with their hydrophilic polar heads facing the exterior and the interior of the cells, while their hydrophobic tails are against each other, constituting the internal part of the membrane. Membranes are fluid, which means that the composing molecules can move through them.

Lipids can easily change places with other neighboring lipids by lateral diffusion in the same layer. This is passive diffusion, which means that it does not need energy to happen.

Lipids can also diffuse transversally to the other layer but not as easily as lateral diffusion. Jumps between monolayers are infrequent as the lipidic polar heads meet the fatty acid barrier.

There are also other lipidic movements as rotational diffusion that imply the rotation of the molecule.

Restriction endonucleases are especially useful if they generate sticky ends. What makes an end sticky?
Mazyrski [523]

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

A) single-stranded complementary tails

B) blunt ends

C) poly-A sequences

D) 5' cap

E) interference

Answer:

A) single stranded complementary tails

Explanation:

Restriction endonuclease is the enzyme which cuts the DNA sequence in the internal sequence.

The endonuclease enzyme can cut the DNA sequence in a way that it can form the cuts with the single-stranded overhangs called sticky ends and without overhangs called blunt ends.

The sticky ends are produced when the enzyme makes cut at the single strand and then makes the cut at between the same base at the nitrogenous base. This type of asymmetrical cut forms the single-stranded overhangs which can form the complementary base pairs easily.

Thus, Option-A is correct.

What temperature pattern do the isotherms show? temperatures increase from south to north. there is a zone of low temperatures i
777dan777 [17]

The temperature pattern which is being shown by the isotherms is that: D. temperatures increase from the center of the country toward the Southwest.​

<h3>What is an isotherm?</h3>

An isotherm refers to a line that is drawn on a map to join points that are having the same temperature, in order to show the distribution of temperature in a geographical area on Earth's surface.

Based on the weather map in the image attached below, we can infer and logically deduce that temperatures typically increase from the center of the country toward the Southwest.​

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

The correct answer is B) binds to the complementary sequence of target mRNAs

Explanation:

Double stranded RNA can be used to block the expression of target mRNAs.

      At first the introduced double stranded RNA is being separated into  single stranded RNAs .One of the Single stranded RNA is degraded.

        The remaining Single stranded RNA binds to the target mRNA by complementary base pairing and blocks the expression of that single stranded RNA.
